Keeping up to date with your own professional development and staying ahead with current practice is important for all professionals in the landscape sector. That’s why all LI members get member-only pricing on LI events, including CPD courses and other training.  We hold regular webinars to keep you connected, as well as offering business and professional guidance and valuable professional development content from industry experts.

We offer discounted rates on insurance services, free legal advice, and a pension scheme. If you work for an LI Registered Practice, they can receive a free initial consultation and preferential rates through McParland Finn, the LI’s preferred insurance broker. Visit the dedicated LI Insurance webpage for more details.

All LI members get exclusive access to bespoke Firestarter courses on ‘Better Business Development’, ‘Practical Business Planning’ and ‘Building a Winning Team’ .
